I have done extensive research on my great grandfather
Oliver Hazford Perry
Reed. He was born May 1822 in Cape County,
Missouri - even though the census says he was born in
Tennessee. He died Feb 26 1894 in Eldorado,
Butler,
Kansas. I am looking for his father. I believe his brothers were James B. Reed and William E. Reed as they are on each others' wills and probate information. OHP
Reed was married to Delilah (
Elliott?) who died and left him with three sons David,
Jaceb U, and James M. He then married Nancy Jane
Brady Sept 15 1852. I would also like information on her family. I think her father was Thomas
Brady born in S.C. in 1815 and her mother was Martha
Vaughan from
Virginia. Nancy was born Feb 16 1834 and died 20 Dec 1904 in Eldorado,
Butler,
Kansas. Her children are: Clemenza Ann b. 1857, Sarah Jane b. 1862, George W. called
Jake b. 1863, Thomas
Reuben, b. 1866, Mary A, (called
Molly) b. 1870, Dora
Isabel b. Nov 4 1871, Charles Alexander b. Aug 12 1875 (my grandfather) and
Archabald V. All of these children were born in Shelbyville,
Shelby, IL.
I would appreciate any information on OHP
Reed, his wife, or her parents. Thank you!
